Last night she was coughing in a manner my asleep brain read as "gross", so unconsciously noped the fuck out of there and slept on the sofa. I can't believe my non-awake brain got it.
She tested positive a few hours ago, so now I just have 7 days to worry. I probably have it, I feel a bit off already.
I know that it's more than most people, but she was wearing low quality masks, going to a non-safe dentist at peak times, and avoiding the booster. I've been nicely pushing her for years, and she brings this shit home. She's also sorry, and I say it's fine because I want her to feel better and recover, but secretly I'm fucking raging.
Sorry to rant. Better on Hexbear than out loud.
OP wasn't upset that they went to a dentist. From the post:
You can find COVID-conscious dentists to go to, who wear N-95s + face shields, require that patients in the waiting room wear masks, and run air purifiers that use HEPA filters. Some (incomplete) sites that track information like this:
If a COVID-safe dentist is not an option, they could have gone to their dentist at a lower-risk time, like first thing in the morning.
